I have been using Amazon as a shopping search engine for a while now, don’t actually buy it though. This is a new and extremely valuable search feature. Clearly I want a foot on a chair. Good job ai, good job

    Nothing smells more like a bubble when a feature like this makes it out to production. They probably worked on 10 other ideas, and this is what they thought was the best one.

      You know one of those other 10 ideas was a button for ‘let the AI decide what to buy for me’, and they would have done it, but it went horribly, horribly wrong in testing. Like, you’d search for “cheese knives” and click the button, and then it would buy 50 gallons of Nacho Cheese and an electric knife sharpener.
